Paint – use exterior paint to give the exterior of your home a quick ‘touch up’, or a complete makeover. It is surprising what a transformation a lick of paint can make to help your home look fresh, and clean.

Guttering –any broken or damaged guttering can make your home look unkempt, and possibly put off potential buyers. Replacing any broken, or damaged guttering, not only is a necessity in order to assist in the prevention of water damage, but also can add that finishing touch to the exteriors appearance.

Storage Boxes – why not create a plastic storage box to hide any children’s toys, or garden equipment when they are not in use. As well as tidying up, and un-cluttering the garden on occasions when you have visitors, these storage boxes can be used to store, and protect garden furniture from weathering in the winter months.

Fascia – old wooden fascia can become dated, and rotten over time, and can make even the most attractive houses unsightly. Why not cap over the existing damaged fascia with a new plastic fascia to add that final, and modern touch.

Garden Sheds – Updating an old, or damaged garden shed, can significantly spruce up the appearance of your garden. With a fresh application of paint, or replacing old damaged boards, and felt roofing, can not only dramatically transform the look of your shed, and garden, but also help protect your belongings inside from water damage.

By simply using any of these tips above, you can seriously transform the exterior of your property, not only making it more welcoming for visitors, and adding value, but more importantly making it a house you can look forward to coming home to, and can enjoy!
